Recent annual agricultural returns in
Great Britain show that the area of wheat
has increased by 1000 acres during the
past year, and that of barley has de-
creased by 178,COO acres. Broadly
stated, there is less land in grain by 143, =
900 this year than 1856, reduction of
$500 acres in green crops, and a rcduc-
tion of no less than G,400 in hops. There
appears an increase of nearly 3, 900 acres
in fax. The extent of arabic lands now
out of cult alton in England and Wales
is less than in 1881 by upwards of 25, 900
acres. Nearly 4,C00 acreas of decreased
acreage in hops is in the county of Kent,
where much of the land has not been
otherwise utilized. Hops have been
grubbed up in consequence of the unre-
munerativc character of the croO from
the prevailing low prices, due to foreign
competition.

According to the New York Iri5uaae,
''the cremation movement continues to
gain ground steadily here and in Europe.
A dozen or more crematories have been
opened within the last year, and at least
double that number are in process of
construction. Cremation societils now

tories. In some European countries,
Italy for example, there is scarcely city
without one. When once a society has
been formed, the erection of a crematory
becomes simply question of time, two
or three years at the outside. To those
who recall the perfect storm of opposi-
ton that the first proposal to revive this
ancient custom raised, this progress ap,

New York State has had twenty eight
Governors, only three of whom were
bachelors, namely, Tilden, Cleveland and
Hill. But while Samuel J. Tilden was
confirmed bachelor he was, neverthe-
less, fond of the society of ladies. That
Mr.. Cleveland had no strong prejudice
against the gentler sex his marriage
clearly proves. But Governor Hill, the
New York World says, seems to be en-
tirely devoted to the society of his own
sex. He is the most uncompromising
bachelor in the State and though he is
repeatedly urged to contemplate matri-
mony by his friends he always turns a
deaf ear to such suggestions.

A block of model tenement houses
has been opened on Cherry street. New
York, which is the result of the enter
prise of a number of practical minded
metropolitan philanthropists, and which
it is to be hoped will have long line of
successors. The houses, says the Epocl,
have been built to pay a moderate re-
turn on the capital invested, and all that
the skill of the arch:te and the sani-
tary engineer could do to render them
wholesome and habitable has been done.
A room for a kindergarten, conducted
under the auspices of the building COM
pany, is a. special and certainly not the
least admirable feature of each group of
six houses. The open courts separating
the houses of each group, the well-ven-
tilated halls and corridors, the basement
laundries, and other new characteristics
of these houses, mark distinct advance
in the building OF tenement houses in
New York.

Physicians pronounce cigarette smok-
ing as the cause of many troubles. 1t is
stated upon undoubted authority that an
unusually large number of young men
have been committed to the Michigan
State Insane Asylum during the last
eighteen months, and that the discovery
has been made that nearly all of them
smoked cigarettes to excess. In many
cases it is said to be absolutely certain
that cigarette smoking was the cause of
the insanity.

The Railroad Gazette gives the follow
ing account of the northernmost enter
prise in the world: "The Swedish and
Norwegian railroad, which is now build
ing from Lulea, on the Gulf of Bothnia,
to Lafoden, on the North Sea, is partly
situated within the Arctic circle, and is
/, 200 miles further north than any rail-
road in Canada The winter has not,
however, been found too severe by the
English employees and their wives, and
the wall is less than in some more
southern latitu les, while the darkness of
the long winter nights is partly compen,
sated by the lights of the aurora. The
line is being built by an English COM
pany in order to tap the enormous de-
po its of iron ore in the Celivara noun
tains. 1t is feared that the ore in the
Bilbao district is nearly exhauste |, and
as this is the source of supply for
many steel works in the United States
and Europe, n-phosphoric ore suita-
able for steel rail making is very de-
sirable. A considerable demand exists
already for the GelIivara ore, and hy-
dTaulic machinery capable of delivering
on board ship 10000 tons of ore in twen-
ty-four hours is being installed on the
company's wharf at Lulea. The engines

land. The former have eight coupled
wheels and weigh $4,000 pounds in
working order. The ore cars are made
